Lost the libel trial YES. Lost the argument - NO WAY!

Tell us about these major mistakes. What exactly are you claiming.

> That is: they *lied* in order to press their case against the fast food chain.

The judge himself said that they DID NOT LIE !! You could at least read the fucking summary before spouting off.

> Why aren't you worried about that? > Or is lying ok if the means justifies the end?

Not worried because it is not true. The evidence in the case was overwhelmingly against McDonald's. Check it out for yourself. The UK libel laws are notoriously unfair - the verdict is no surprise and changes nothing.
